...perhaps buy "La Vie Est Belle" again? I thought to myself, slightly startled after admittedly a rather spontaneous impulse buy (it was 50% off, don’t judge me...). It must be due to the quite dominant sweetness that particularly knocked me off my feet in the top note.
I do appreciate the well-known crowd-pleaser from Lancôme in principle, but I just don’t want to wear it anymore because you really smell it everywhere. Thus, I was very relieved that this Flowerbomb flanker quickly transformed into a pleasantly mild-sweet-vanilla fruit compote and eventually hinted at the orchid.
Therefore, this fragrance is for me a very pleasantly gourmand everyday scent that doesn’t overwhelm and doesn’t give me headaches. A not-so-monster-like longevity comes with it, but that’s okay for me because I like to switch to another fragrance in the evening anyway if needed.
